Just what was advertised.
My wife and I both sleep better and it is a nice night light too!
Love it!
Great for bedtime with that drying winter heat on!
A little over rated,but satisfactory.
Please supply larger refills for purchase.
This is my 4th Globe
I notice that there is a lot less dust in the air, which is great because I hate to dust.
I am going to buy ones additional ones
Works greatin the bedroom. The various scents fill the room.
Attractiveandunique
Attractive easily managed
Reasonably priced, and it works
I wish it were just a tad smaller, so it would take up less space on my already book-laden night stand. I also dont care much for the scents that are bottled with purchase; scent-free would be better. That said, however, this REALLY does the job, and fast. Every winter when the damp sets in, my bedroom picks up a slightly mildewed odor; this cleaned it out in 24 hours.
thank god I got it
I bought it because my mom cooks everyday and when I come home from work, the house smells like food and I hate! it ! Now She has it turned on all day while she is cooking, and the house smells great! I bought 2 one for the kitchen and the other for my room. I love it.
Excellent Evaporative Humidifier
I have three of these, one in each bedroom and they are great. Description does not call it a humidifier but I think it is the best evaporative humidifier I have ever owned and it does a great job of cleaning the air too.
"Too much whiz and not enough bang"
Looks nice and has a nice light. The water doesnt last over 24 hours.
I would buy this product again and again
Works great, small, no filters.
have 2-----they are great and do the job
live in motor home and this is jus the rite size and does the job quite well
Air Purifier
Great with aroma oils. Makes a nice white noise sound too. Just wish the air flow was a bit more.
I love this
I really like this. It does seem to "Wash" the air. The scents that were shipped with it give off a very plesant smell and add to the fresh smell in the room. Set up was a snap and the instructions for use are very easy. Cleaning is a snap too.
Outranks all others
We have one in the kitchen and one in the family room/TV area. It totally eliminates food and smoke odors. Far outranks any other air purification system weve tried.
Works better than I expected
The water goes round and round creating a soothing (and adjustable) white noise, while the LED changes color that serves as a cool night light. A few drops of the aroma oil fills the room with a nice scent.
Worth every cent!
I think these Mini-Max units are great, in our home we have one in almost every room, absolutely no allergy issues this year so far, no runny eyes, or sneezing, itchy eyes, etc. All in all-------------worth every cent!
not for people on the go
I was not happy with the product because you could not just plug it in and leave it on 24/7.
I love it.
Run with water,give clean refreshing air&come with four different essential oils to use.
Refreshes indoor air
The wildfires around Boulder, CO have filled the air with smoke and pollutants. I liked the idea of cleaning the indoor air of my home using water as a purifier. This compact air purifier makes the air in the room much easier to breathe. It is light weight for easy transport to the office and is easy to clean. I am pleased with my purchase.
simple but effective
i use it in the bathroom to stymie any odors. it scents the air as it cleans. one must always check water levels
Amazing Water Globe
Just adorable! Previous air cleaner bulky and noisy. The water globe is attractive, easy to clean, and fascinating to watch. Good job with the design!
All good - but how do you clean???
I like this prdoduct a lot but notice that it has begun to get some icky gunk inside the cone that moves the water. I tried to get it out with a q-tip but no luck. It seems impossible to remove and will surely continue to accumulate.
A good modification to the design: allow users to remove the cone in order to clean!
Amazing
I set it up on my desk in my room and it started to work immediately. I used the microbe shield additive and it smells great! I accidentally put a little too much in the basin so it smells strong. It is a little loud, but it is relaxing, so it doesnt bother me. It also looks really neat. I cant really think of anything bad about this product!
Terrible! The item does not work
I bought one from sharper image after reading all the great reviews. The item does not work, the led light does not turn on and the item is not a sharper image product. It is made by minimax . The plastic water bowl makes it look like its not even worth $10. Complete ripoff. Make sure you see the item in person before ordering online. Not worth [$]
Love it!
Doubles as an air freshener.
awesome product
it is very eefficient and good looking. It really does a great job.
Works great!
I have 2 problem areas in our home - the kitchen after Saturday morning pancakes (the greasy smell) and the laundry room where the cat box, for the 3 cats, is located. We just added 2 cats in the last few months and it had become oppressive to go into the laundry room due to the cat box odor. This water globe has all but completely removed the odors - it is amazing - even without using any of the fragrances that were included. If the cats have just done their business, you notice it, but its not horrible. Within a very short time, maybe 15-20 minutes, all the odor is gone and remains gone until the next kitty potty break. It works pretty well in the kitchen too, although the greasy smell lingers longer - this may be because it is a much more open area with very high ceilings than the small, contained laundry room. I leave it plugged in and going all the time - with constant running you have to change / add water about every 24 hours. It does make noise - like a quiet washing machine or dishwasher. Al
Okay Buy
This product looks good and does go to work instantly, but I would call it an air freshener, rather than an air purifier. As soon as you turn it on it goes to work and makes the room smell better, and remove bad odors, but no air contaminants collect in the water, and if it is a hot day the water evaporates away, so even if it did clean the air polutants go right back in it.
All in all it is good to look at, good for kitchens bathrooms, and nurseries; as long as you can handle the noise
versatile - sits quietly bubbling away
Using my own oil scents - very nice to gently give a room an aroma of your choice. Even better if its cleaning the air at the same time as it says it does.
Got to be careful with te bubbling noise, sends you to sleep, so best not to use in the office !?!
Cute and good product
Love it.
I am getting it for Xmas gifts
I used it in the kitchen to clean the cooking odors. I also used it to humidified the air and soften it. A/C dry the air, this clean and give it just the right amount of moisture. Save you space and money on another equipment.
Fantastic for pets!
My fiance and I bought this because we work at an animal hospital and one of our veterinarians bought it for her exam room. It worked so well at the hospital for foul pet odors that we decided to buy one for our home. We use it every day and it always freshens up our home (2 dogs and 1 cat in our 2 bedroom apartment). Not mention that my fiance and one of our dogs have severe dust allergies and this really helps to reduce the dust in the air. I recommend this to all our pet-owner or allergy prone friends. Thanks Sharper Image!
Small in Size but Powerful in Results
I live in a log home and no matter how dry your logs are, there is always some mold in the air. By adding a very small amount of isopropyl alcohol, a few drops of lemon grass and tea tree essential oils, to the water bowl, the air has become so clean that my sinus problems had disappeared. Im sold!
fabulous
I use this in my home, Im not an office but I cant imagine it wouldnt work beautifully in an office as well. Its a wonderful product. I also have a humidifier from Sharper Imaage but this product could replace that. The air felt better and fresher immediately. Ive only used two of the scenes thus far, but it comes with a small variety. Its very easy to use, it doesnt make a sound.
I love the product. It works so great
I am fascinated at the sight of the colors and the air freshness.
Nice additiaon to home
This product is great for the living room and it has made improvements on air quality. Changing the water is routine(every day), but one could go two days. Drawbacks, could be frequent water fills, but overall we are satisfied with our purchase and will purchase more in the future.
Great item.
We bought 3 of these air purifiers and they are doing just what we wanted them it to do. We are using them in 2 bedrooms and in our living room. Also very nice that you can turn the light off while sleeping. We run ours 24/7 when we are home.
LOVE IT!
This air filter is the best I have owned for personal use. I sit it on my night stand and add the lavender fragrance. I am asleep in 5 minutes and my airway passages stay open all night!
Cool Globe, Pure Air
This is a Christmas present for my husband. We plan to use it in the bedroom, and probably elsewhere in our very large home. It easily moves, and is attractive to view. Clean air is a must in staying healthy -- especially in the winter months.
Fantastic Air Purifier & Freshner
Absolutely thrilled with this purchase. Due to the entire family having allergies, we have searched high and low for a purifier for the bedrooms and finally we ran across this device. Absolutely fantastic. The scents are light and we wake each morning without a dry, scratchy throat or sniffles. The kids love the LED changing light - just enough to give a nice glow in the room. If the unit is turned to high, the sound reminds me of the ocean. Couldnt recommend this more - easy to use and clean and small enough to not take up a lot of space.
Great compact product
It as i very simple to use and it actualy works just fine.I love this product!
breathe easier
I have noticed a difference in the air quality and how I feel when I wake up in the morning, since we began using this Globe air purifier about a month ago. Very easy to clean. My only complaint is that the on/off switch for light is very poorly made.
Cool way to clean air
Decorative piece, almost like art
Great Product
I purchased this product for my father who has asthma and this air purifier has notably helped him manage his asthma. Great product and would highly recommend.
It really works!!!
I use the night light next to bed as I can turn on and off easy.I recently was sick with virus and I feel better knowing I used the purifier to keep germs at bay.Love the sound as I use fan in summer and miss the sound in winter.It fills many purposes in my home and asking for more as gifts for my birthday and Christmas. I am ging to give as gifts myself.
I love this machine. Recommend it to buy
In my home. It is attractive.
excellent purifier/freshener
I use the purifier at home and it does seem to purify and humidify the air after continuous use.what i like about is that there is no expensive filter to change, just water ! I would buy another for my room because i use this in our living room.
I would buy this again
Perfect for my bedroom--price was affordable--I love the water filter. Hate having to buy filters for air purifiers. I am a allergy suffer and have to have pure air. I had a sharper image iconic breeze for many years but could not afford to buy one now on social sec.--retired. I am so grateful you make one I can buy now. I will buy others such as the closet one. I love and trust sharper image products.
GREAT
Since some people smoke who come in the house this little machine cleans it up right away.
Works great
I turn on the product whenever I start working in that room. It works great and is extremely quiet. It sits in a shelf and is quite neat to look at.
nice product.
It releases nice scents and i believe it "cleans" the air but I havent seen the evidence of this yet.
perfect for my apartment
Quickly removes smoke, cooking, and cat odors from my apt. You have to make sure to monitor it as the water level decreases. Lasts about 6 hrs on its highest setting before rewashing and refilling globe. I keep it on highest setting whenever Im home. Also has a cool changing light option, glows about the same as a night light would.
Love it
I just love this little air cleaner.
Cool little gadget
It did fill the house with scent but it was a little too large to fit comfortably on the counter. Loved the lights.
It works
We use this in our bedroom and I have to fill it twice a day with about 2 cups of water. It is very dry here in Colorado, so it may not be this way for everyone. I should have bought a bigger unit for just that reason. We do love the effect it has had on our room and are considering buying more for other rooms.
works great
I use it in the kitchen to eliminate the odors after cooking. Its small so it doesnt take a lot of space and it works great.
Happy Purchase
Im so glad I purchased the water globe. I plan to purchase two more for my childrens rooms.
Great little machine
LOVE LOVE LOVE this little air purifer!!!! It may be little but it does a wonderful job! Bought two more one for my daughter and one for my grand daughter. They both have pets in their homes and it works really well to eliminate odors!!!
Cute would buy for gifts
Water evaporates to fast
Water Globe Air Purifier
I consider this a great purchase. I just bought a new condo and started this up right away. I love how it has multiple uses in filtering, air freshener, and light humidifier. Air purifiers tend to be on the expensive side and I feel this was a great deal for the amount I spent. I am pretty sure I will we ordering atleast one more and have recommended this to my family and friends.
I am very happy with this product.
I have allergy issues and live near an industrial area so it is important to keep the air inside my home as clean as possible. Sharper Image products have helped make this happen.
Really cleans the air
While this product really does clean the air, I am disappointed in the scented oils. The only time I can smell them is when I am mixing the oil with the water. There is no refreshing scent while the product is running. Since replacement oils cost over $15 a bottle, I will not be buying anymore.
bought 3
Every night when I go to bed I turn it on, I believe it cuts down on all the dust in the air.
Great Investment
The Water Globe does not have a loud motor, its a soothing sound of water. The light on it changes color and makes for a nice way to fall asleep.
Great air purifier
I have one at home and my office. I have terrible dust allergy and I stopped sneezing!
Best Buy
I have tried 2 other air filters and purifiers with disappointing results. But this product was IMMEDIATE!!! The air was crisp and lightly scented. The odors in the kitchen disappeared within 30 minutes of use. So simple to use and I love that they include 4 choice of scents to use. The only con is the noise factor. It really does sound like a washing machine. BUT worth it if it gives me cleaner healthier air to breath. Thanks, hope it lasts!!!!
It is worth it.
Great for the bedroom and living room. Eliminates odor and smoking smell also diminishes.
Not what I thought, but keeping
This product does put the moisture in the air and has cut down on the dust in the air. However, I do not think it takes the food smell out of the air when you are cooking. I kept this for our allergies and the cold season.
it really cleans the air!
its powerful in small places like a bathroom, bedroom small office.. but for a kitchen removing cocking odors it doesnt work that well ... so far a great product you will sleep better if use it in the bedroom.
DOES WORK !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Two smokers, one dog, one cat and it works!
Amazing. Ordered two units. One for upstairs & one for downstairs. Slept better the first night!
They work best when the Microbeshield drops are added to the water. I have spent 4 times as much for other units in past years. These units require less maintenance and make the air fresher.
Ordered two more for my infant grandsons. Everyone loves them. Visitors notice a difference immediately.
I was doubtful at first. They are less expensive, use tap water and are plastic. No more doubts.
They really do work! Great product!
Great Product - Multiple Benefits
Simple to use & operate.
Water Globe Air Purifier & Air Freshener
I ordered one for my bedroom. We enjoyed the variety of fragrances so much, my husband wanted one for his office.
Bought 3
I use it while I sleep. Now my brother and Mother have one each.
Soooo quiet
This actually works, the air is clean and easy to use.
Decent
I purchased this air purifier in hopes of an affordable way to get rid of the cigarette smoke from my down stairs neighbors. I really dont notice a huge difference. I do feel it helps get clean in the air but its not a perfect job by any means. The dome has a speed control on the top and I have it at the very fastest speed and it is VERY noisy. I also leave mine going full speed all day and everyday and I have to empty out the bowl every morning and re-fill the water and before bed I have to empty and re-fill because the all day and full speed use evaporates the water quickly. The fragrances are okay. Dont purchase expecting to replace those wall plug ins. The fragrance only lasts about 2 hours. They also arent that great smelling. The Lavender smells like Lysols Lavender spray. My favorite is the micro shield fragrance. Ive notice that one actually fills my whole apartment from the bathroom but again, doesnt last long. All around, its a decent air purifier. Ive ordered the next step up, the 3 in 1
Cant wait for it to get dark.
Recently bought the water globe. Its everything you said it was. I find I am running it all day, & cant wait for nite to turn on the "colored" lights, as it makes such a great nite lite as well. It adds a nice touch to our Motorhome. Best of all, no filters to buy. Just wash it out, fill, and youre ready for the next day. Awesome!!!
